kls@ditka.UUCP (Karl Swartz) (10/04/89)
I recently moved to a place where Telenet offers 2400 baud dialin
port, and started changing some of my PC Pursuit uucp links to use
the faster speed. I was susprised to discover that most of the
links fail at 2400, though about 30% work perfectly.
The failures occur right after ditka sends an "H" message if there
was no work queued at this end, or somewhere during the transfers
if there was work to do. At 1200, holding everything else constant
(same number on remote system, etc.), everything works fine.
Looking for patterns hasn't panned out yet. Of two sites in Chicago
(ILCHI), one works, one fail. As for machine types there is quite
a menagerie ... HDB certainly doesn't seem to matter, as a 3B1 with
HDB is one of the ones that works, while a 3B15 (which I assume has
HDB) fails.
Background info: ditka is an AT&T 3B1 (aka UNIX PC) running 3.51dG1
system software (beta test version of the next and probably final
bug release) and HoneyDanBer. I'm using a Telebit TrailBlazer Plus
and the San Jose, California indials.
Here are the transcripts of two -x7 uucico sessions, the first at
2400 and the second at 1200.
